Old JRCOMM/ CDTV
« on: April 19, 2003, 12:28:57 AM »
Anyone know where to get that old term program JRCOMM? I want to use a CDTV to watch a serial
data stream with minimal hardware, and since it is WB1.3 JRCOMM would probably work best
and look better on a TV anyway. The menus from what I remember would be easy to navigate with a
CDTV remote, too. If anyone can help, let me know.

Hm, I couldn't find JRComm but NComm should work on OS1.3 I think, have a look  in here.

Wow... I did a quick search, and couldn't find any information on what happened to JRComm, itself.  

As I recall, JRComm was scrapped, the author (Jack Radigan) wrote a new terminal named Terminus, which he eventually sold, and it became Termite.  But, I have no idea if JRComm was released to PD, or left to die.  (shrug)

I messaged you with my e-mail address.

If I remember right, I think I downloaded JRComm originally from GEnie as back then...
(It was all I could use since I could only dial 1-800
numbers from the phone in the barracks that I
wired into my room...)

I think it was shareware. I think i have Terminus, but
while it had some better features, I never liked it
as much as JRComm.

I just found it on one of my old floppys.  It is the unregistered version.

I can send it to you if you want.
